Abstract (en)

The present invention concerns a spin-valve structure comprising a first and a second free ferromagnetic layer and an antiferromagnetic layer positioned between said first and second free ferromagnetic layer, characterised in that said first free ferromagnetic layer is positioned on a semiconductor substrate. It further concerns a method for producing a spin-valve structure, comprising the step of electrodeposition of said spin-valve structure on a semiconductor substrate. <IMAGE>
